In a Rajasthan village, 43 families have been socially boycotted for failing to prepare ghee malpua during a death feast, a traditional custom.
A community in Rajasthan has reportedly ostracized 43 families for deviating from a customary practice during a recent death feast. The families are accused of not preparing ghee malpua, a traditional sweet, as part of the funeral rituals.
This social boycott means the affected families are barred from participating in community events and potentially face other social restrictions. The decision was reportedly made by the community elders or a council.
The incident highlights the strong adherence to traditional customs in some parts of rural Rajasthan and the consequences faced by those who do not conform.
